Rigid fork mtb sw

Hello everyone, how would you go about making this front fork of your bike (see link)?  What functions especially because in smoothing it makes me bad I don't get what I want. Thank you all

Can you put a preview of the smoothing you get?

Hello, what do you mean by "I don't get what I want"? Smoothing seems to be the quickest and easiest way. Personally I will use the boundary boss with the different intermediate profiles and some guide curves...

Unfortunately I am not on my computer until tomorrow morning. The problem with the smoothing is at the "junction" between the two fork tubes and the steerer. It makes me a flat surface, I hope I'm clear enough. Thank you

It's good to centralize the answers.

 

Otherwise guys, it's a mess! ^^

Thank you for your answers and sorry for the double post...

Why is the boss function more appropriate? (I've always used straightening)

I'm going to find out about the welded mechanic (tutorial or other) because I have very little knowledge in it if at all haha! I'll keep you informed as soon as possible

 

If you have any other ideas, don't hesitate, thank you in advance:)

The fork being a welded construction assembly, I would logically have gone for a welded construction =)

Good luck! And don't hesitate to follow the tutorial on mechanical welding that is included in Solidworks.

I get this in smoothing.

My guide curves are done quickly without positioning themselves in relation to the sketch image, so  with the image we have to improve strongly.

Thank you opiep27 for your time. Your smoothing is more than satisfactory to me. Just a quick question, are 3D sketches the guide curves of your smoothing? What about the 2D sketches of your profiles?

Are you under what version of sw? The test I did is under SW15

Edit: a preview of the sketches to answer your question.
